Of all the parts of the course to go the wrong way, the fucking canal turn.
The clue's are all there.
Muppet.
If you're going to make the running in the Cross Country then you need to make sure you know the route well.

My day so far summed up nicely by vanilliers jockey getting lost and giving up 20 lengths only to finish 3rd anyway

He's so slow he needed to be at the front setting strong fractions to have any chance

Looks to be in good nick with the GN in mind

Really think Nico needs to get that head shaved.
Accept it.

I love Lecky Watson

3rd ever 100/1 winner baybaaaay

Lecky just took my V Card for 100/1 winner, haven't had a thrill as big as that since had a "Large" bet on my name sake!! Brilliant

Was thinking about his plans after his win, I reckon he'd be better over 2m.

What do you think, Champion Hurdle or Arkle?

Doesn't look particularly big so hurdles at a guess

If any horse was going to break the curse it was going to be the one that didn't look like a future 3 miler tbf

If I'd waited to bet I'd have had him

But at the prices last night decided on the yellow clay and potters charm

Had he been over 4.0 last night he'd have been my pick but c'est la vie

Has there ever been a race featuring 3 winners from the previous festival? And if so, the same question but for a novice chase?

Nice enough story from yesterday as I went down with 7 other lads, including 5 who'd never been to cheltenham and a couple who'd never been to a race course.
They were all asking me for tips and as I have multiple in each race then it's difficult.
I smashed the first three races, although some good looking multiples went down.
Then I ended up on my own watching the champion near the finish line, and was fucking gobsmacked at virtually everything, the slower fractions from the pacemaker, Con Hill falling, then I'm thinking it's in the bag for my main play (reminded me of the Apples Jade champion when Buvuer fell and also the Kauto fall vs Denman, I was on both for plenty) only to very quickly see how well State Man (looked like he was on drugs) was going and pretty much knew my fate.
Then shit happened and the mare comes out of the carnage.

Gets back into the Istabraq bar and every single one of the lads had backed fucking Golden Ace at 40's.
Paid for their days out and some.
